HESSIAN OFFICER ..NOMINATIVE

[PROGLORIA]

HI All ,

Here is a new helmet in my collection . it has the particularity of being nominative . I would like to sincerely thank ARGONNE (Philippe) for helping me find the owner.
I think the tip repair is old

Very nice indeed.

Congratulations The writing in pencil looks unbelievably fresh for over 130 years old and with such detailed information I don't think I've ever seen anything like it.

It’s a really nice piece! The beautiful undisturbed dirt under the plate testifies to its age.

One question: I’m wondering why it doesn’t have a Reserve cross?

How fantastic is that! Very nice. Rob

Hi,
Good question! This was never submitted to a kind of official regulation. It may have been, but it never formally was.

Super information
It could be that he had his active helmet and the reserve cross
was never added ?
